I have a copy of the following article. I don't know what paper it was in or the year (although, based on a perpetual calendar and information I know about some of the attendees, I believe the year to be 1937 or 1943, when August 15th fell on a Sunday). If there is someone listed who is in your family (or a family history that you have researched), I hope you'll let us know! Surnames listed include (alphabetically): BAGGS, BRUMFIELD, BURNS, COLLINS, COTTERMAN, COX, DAVIS, FENN, HEDGES, JENKINS, KEELER, KUCK, LACKEY, MCGUIRE, NESBITT, RALSTON, RICH, SHAFFNER, SHUE, SWARTZ, WEIPERT and WILBAUM. ***************************************************************************************************************************** The fourth annual reunion of the DAVIS and RALSTON families was held at Lakewood Beach Sunday, August 15.
